You can submit appeal and they will unban you. Also this is a crypto related software, and they have it in their ToS that they do not condone using their services for mining crypto, this might be detected as an alike operation.

For the reason said above it's not crypto mining so they will most likely unban, I've been there before.

I'll leave it a pinned issue however, since this is obviously something people need to keep in mind.

That's unfortunate but that's Google's policy of preventing abuse of their services for mining crypto. While this software doesn't do any of it, it does still perform a lot of crypto-related stuff which most likely triggers the automatic detection. Sorry, I cannot help that.
